| 20080228446 | Method and Apparatus for Signal Detection, Classification and Estimation from Compressive Measurements - The recently introduced theory of Compressive Sensing (CS) enables a new method for signal recovery from incomplete information (a reduced set of “compressive” linear measurements), based on the assumption that the signal is sparse in some dictionary. Such compressive measurement schemes are desirable in practice for reducing the costs of signal acquisition, storage, and processing. However, the current CS framework considers only a certain task (signal recovery) and only in a certain model setting (sparsity). | 09-18-2008 |
| 20090222226 | Method and Apparatus for On-Line Compressed Sensing - A typical data acquisition system takes periodic samples of a signal, image, or other data, often at the so-called Nyquist/Shannon sampling rate of two times the data bandwidth in order to ensure that no information is lost. In applications involving wideband signals, the Nyquist/Shannon sampling rate is very high, even though the signals may have a simple underlying structure. Recent developments in mathematics and signal processing have uncovered a solution to this Nyquist/Shannon sampling rate bottlenck for signals that are sparse or compressible in some representation. We demonstrate and reduce to practice methods to extract information directly from an analog or digital signal based on altering our notion of sampling to replace uniform time samples with more general linear functionals. One embodiment of our invention is a low-rate analog-to-information converter that can replace the high-rate analog-to-digital converter in certain applications involving wideband signals. Another embodiment is an encoding scheme for wideband discrete-time signals that condenses their information content. | 09-03-2009 |
| 20100241378 | Method and Apparatus for Compressive Parameter Estimation and Tracking - We have developed a new method and apparatus for tracking and estimating parameters of locally oscillating signals from measurements that approximately preserve the inner product among signals in a class of signals of interest. Random demodulation, random sampling, and coset sampling are three prime examples of these techniques. | 09-23-2010 |

| 20090097661 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR MANAGING CRYPTOGRAPHIC KEYS - A common interface for managing cryptographic keys is provided. A request to manage a cryptographic key may be received in a first interface format, translated to a common interface format, and then executed remotely from the first interface. Return arguments may then be translated from the common interface format to a format compatible with the first interface and communicated securely to the first interface. The cryptographic keys may be used in connection with a secure data parser that secures data by randomly distributing data within a data set into two or more shares. | 04-16-2009 |
| 20090254750 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR SECURE WORKGROUP MANAGEMENT AND COMMUNICATION - A secure data parser is provided that may be integrated into any suitable system for securely storing and communicating data. The secure data parser may split or share a data set into multiple portions that are stored or communicated distinctly. Encryption of the original data, the portions of data, or both may be employed for additional security. The secure data parser may be used to protect data in motion by splitting an original data set into portions of data that may be communicated using one or more communications paths. Secure workgroup communication is supported through the secure distribution and management of a workgroup key for use with the secure data parser. | 10-08-2009 |
| 20110258439 | SECURE DATA PARSER METHOD AND SYSTEM - A secure data parser is provided that may be integrated into any suitable system for securely storing and communicating data. The secure data parser parses data and then splits the data into multiple portions that are stored or communicated distinctly. Encryption of the original data, the portions of data, or both may be employed for additional security. The secure data parser may be used to protect data in motion by splitting original data into portions of data, that may be communicated using multiple communications paths. | 10-20-2011 |
